@scimagic Uhhh made this because I just think they’re dynamic is neat. Also completely agree with the Puzzle headcanon super fun silly and very on point. As we speak he is clinging for his dear life :))

I really enjoy seeing the illustrated storyline you have unfolding between the two and figured it would be nice to see this motorcycle sequence in motion. So tadaa here it is! In animated form! Now your obligated to make a full length written novel in-depth about their relationship /j

Sincerely though thanks for the creative inspiration and keep on being a swagger artist 👍✨

waow 2024 is almost dead!!! gone too soon. feels like it’s been a big year for me art-wise for many reasons, BUT. i’m making 2025 bigger.... hopefully....i’ve made some art goals for next year which i won’t explain in detail but they boil down to 1) do more studies 2) tackle my weaknesses (backgrounds, dynamic poses/angles, uhhh lots of stuff i am a one trick pony right now) 3) get into drawing comics, all of which are in preparation for 4) take my story ideas more seriously and get started on one of the many graphic novels living in my head. i have one in mind i HAVE to complete in my lifetime or i will die, but firstly i’m gonna mess around with some little standalone svanhildr comics perhaps. goat fans rejoice. 

anyway i wasn’t meant to ramble so i’ll just say THANK YOU for the support as always!!! i’m very flattered all of these have more than 1000 notes.....crazy. thank you. muah

to live another day - asaba harumasa

1k | writing practice

Your ear twitched as the sound of sheets rustling began to stir you awake. It was soft at first, but as the minutes passed, the sound grew louder, becoming more erratic. Then at its peak came a loud frantic gasp, jolting you up. Glancing at your phone, you let out a sigh. 4:43am. You turned back to the wall separating you from your neighbor, unable to help the concern from your expression. This was the third time he awoke from a nightmare this night. And judging by the sound of him stepping out of bed, he wasn’t going to try and sleep once more.

Settling back in bed, you stared at the ceiling, doing your best to ignore the sounds coming from the neighboring apartment. You wondered what he’d think if he knew you could hear him on nights like this. Perhaps if you were born a regular human he’d have his privacy. But as a cat thiren, your hearing was better than most. From the mumbles in his sleep to the sound of the various medication he took shaking about, there was nothing he could keep from you.

In the back of your mind, you knew it wasn’t fair to him. You knew who he was, after all, the great Asaba Harumasa of HOS Section 6. You saw the interviews he gave on TV, how lighthearted and carefree he seemed. How would he feel knowing that you knew the face he showed to the world was a lie? But you couldn’t move your bed. There was only one bedroom in your apartment, and it just so happened to share the wall bordering his. 

As dawn turned into morning and the rest of the day passed, you couldn’t stop him from entering your mind. As much as you knew, there was still so little you did. What kind of illness did he have? Was it terminal? What was he like at work? Did he spend his lunch break sleeping? You wanted to laugh at how obsessed you were. It wasn’t like this was one of the many days he stayed home. Why couldn’t you get your mind off him?

Eventually, fed up with yourself, you finally called it quits once the evening hit. Though you worked from home as a graphic designer, there wasn’t much you got done today. Stepping out onto your balcony, you sighed as you took a sip from a can of beer. The view of the city was beautiful under the light of the dying sun. Perhaps it would be best if you moved eventually. That way you could finally escape your obsession with your neighbor. 

So caught up in your own thoughts, however, you couldn’t help but let out a gasp of surprise when the sound of a balcony door opening came from your right. 

“Oh, neighbor, is that you?” Came a voice, his voice, curiously. 

You cleared your throat nervously, doing your best to ignore how you were just thinking about him not a moment earlier. You didn’t want to sound like a creep. This wasn’t your first time talking to him, after all.

“Oh, um yes. Good evening. Did you just finish work?” You asked. 

A yawn came.

“Yeah, you know how it is.”

Though a wall separated you both, you could see the silhouette of his arms against the railing and a smile upon his lips. You did your best not to lean out a little more to catch a better glance at him. 

“Ethereals to kill and tons of paperwork to fill, I’m guessing.”

“You know it!” He laughed. “And how was your day? Got a lot done?”

You groaned.

“I wish. I couldn’t concentrate at all. I didn’t sleep all too well last night,” you mumbled, before cursing silently under your breath. You didn’t mean to say that. Thankfully Harumasa did not miss a beat.

“Oh sleep troubles? Have you tried melatonin? That’s what the Deputy Chief recommends.”

“She does? Have… Have you tried it?” 

You definitely wanted to hit yourself then. Couldn’t control your mouth, could you?

“Me? I’ve never needed to. I get plenty of sleep! Just ask my colleagues,” he replied with a grin that could be heard on his voice. 

You did your best to laugh in reply. 

“I’m jealous. There’s someone I know who is sick, so I guess I’ve been thinking about them too much to clear my mind at night. But they seem like they don’t like to talk about it much, so I don’t really know what to do…”

It was quiet for a few moments before he decided to reply.

“Oof, that sounds tough. I’m sure they only do it because they don’t want other people to worry. People who are sick know how to take care of themselves, so I would try to give that person a little more credit,” he reassured. 

“You think so?” You asked. 

He hummed.

“Okay, well, not every sick person makes sure to take care of themselves. But the ones that have people that care for them do. No sick person wants the people they care for to worry about them, so they try their best to care for themselves even when it is hard to do so. Give them a little credit.”

You thought hard about what he said. Well, it did make sense. So did that mean that as in bad of a condition he seemed to be during those nights he couldn’t sleep or the days he stayed home in bed, that he truly was taking care of himself? Could you truly believe that?

“If it were me,” he continued on, “I’d want nothing more than to live, you know?”

You don’t know what it was. Perhaps it was the way he said such a thing so simply that made tears come to your eyes. 

“I guess… I see what you mean,” you mumbled. “If that’s the case, I hope… I hope he puts his all into living as long as he can. That’s the least he can do, right?”

You couldn’t help the watery laugh that came to your lips. 

“Of course!” He replied. “I’m sure he’ll do his best.”

[Image description: a screenshot redraw of Luz and Eda from The Owl House, painted digitally. Eda's in her pajamas, drinking from a mug and leaning away from Luz, who approaches her excitedly.

Luz is wearing a black witch's robe and a spray-painted black traffic cone to resemble a witch hat, smiling and taking hold of Eda's arm. King sits in a high chair in the background, stabbing his breakfast with a fork.

I think that there’s a fundamental misunderstanding of what exactly is…happening with Izuku’s character. Specifically in regards to chapter 425.

I’m glad that a lot more people generally recognize that Izuku is not a character that can be read at a surface level, given that he’s both a repressed person with built up emotion of basically everything and also a very glaringly HUGELY unreliable narrator, but that doesn’t necessarily mean I agree with the ways I’ve seen this most recent chapter spoken about.

I see posts, comments, etc with ideas like “Izuku don’t suppress your emotions! Open up with people! It’ll be okay I promise!” When that’s fundamentally not what is happening here.

There’s always always ALWAYS been a distinct difference in character throughout horikoshi’s writing when he is showing that a character is:

A—Avoiding emotions, thoughts, ideas less than ideal for them. Not opening up when they probably should about their problems given that they’ve been handed the space to do so. Just genuinely not acknowledging, feeling, or expressing emotions that they don’t want.

B—Reflecting on the ways they feel about the world, themselves, or other people given their new perspective on a situation. Not outright reaching out to others to talk about these problems/feelings, but instead waiting until the moment they feel they have the most confidence to do so with their new outlook on their own life.

And genuinely, guys, to grab your BkDk attention rn, this is the exact reason why Ochako’s reflection on her feelings for Izuku and thereafter decision to pull away from them WAS NEVER GOING TO END IN OCHAKO EXPLODING WITH HER LOVE FOR HIM.

This was another common interpretation I saw of Ochako and Izuocha for a long time. That because she pushed these feelings away, they were somehow going to explode in this unbelievable way and she would “get the boy” because of it. That her arc would surround accepting her romantic feelings and that she can’t just push away how she feels for a career.

But yk. That didn’t happen. At all. Nowhere close even.

The same kind of goes for Katsuki, allmight, etc. They all had moments in their arc where it was spent genuinely reflecting, and the only reason we as the audience never connected it in the same ways we do ochako or Izuku was ALWAYS BECAUSE the narrative showed their inner thoughts while doing so (mostly because Allmight’s arc after losing OFA and Katsuki’s arc on what it means to be a hero were so intrinsically tied, both starting at the same time and ending at the same time during the final war. And because they were so tied this caused their own reflections, development, and thought process to be broadcasted to us frequently throughout their arcs… to each other. They also somewhat shared aspects with Izuku, but these were cherry picked more often than not, like dvk2 for example).

To us Katsuki never seemed to be.. idk, suppressing his anger in any way because we were always told what he was doing and why (side note: this is why I’ve always thought arguments against Katsuki were so weird, bc unlike characters like endeavor or Ochako he wasn’t like… hiding who he was and how he was changing. Ever. Like the audience knows at all times past basically season 3 what Katsuki is thinking and doing. Like how do you watch this happen, stare me dead in the eye, and tell me how much of a terrible and awful teenage boy he is. Like damn I didn’t think we were this dumb. This is also my theory as to why he’s most popular, his arc is very… in your face if that makes sense). Katsuki’s entire mini arc on reflecting his mistakes and his childhood and his future is spent TELLING YOU that it’s what he’s doing. (I’m referring mostly to the endeavor internship arc, the provisional license exam makeup, and basically everything in the war arc related to him leading up to bakugou Katsuki rising here)

And see, Horikoshi will stare you dead in the eye, tell you “this girl has taken into consideration that she doesn’t want to waste her time training her career focusing on a boy because he kinda caught her fancy”, and y’all will still say that this will explode in her face.

Y’all this is a series about learning how to manage emotions, maturity in relationship to one’s emotions, how to feel an emotion, but in a way that is helpful. Horikoshi isn’t telling you “go buck wild, feel everything all the time and always express it”, in fact he explores why you DONT do that! Through Toga or Shigaraki, they show how grief and anger can genuinely consume you. But he also shows why you shouldn’t just put everything in a box to never look at or acknowledge, or why you shouldn’t just let your grief destroy the world around you, or pretending that some emotions simply don’t exist.

I can’t say this enough, so let me say it now, mha is about the extremes of your psyche. That you should control something, but not too much. Everything can be harmful. Everything can be good.

Izuku is not controlling too much, he’s expressing just enough.

I LOVE shaming this dickhead at all times in all my posts. I love saying he’s an ignorant dipshit with a weird amount of distaste for a girl who just confessed to him. I’ve joked that chapter 348 is basically an entire chapter spent on Izuku calling Himiko a mean dyke. And yet I also believe he’s doing nothing WRONG here.

In fact, I’ll even say that this moment right here?

ISNT EVEN IZUKU DOING THE SOCIALLY APPROPRIATE THING ABOUT IT! But he’s still TRYING to reach out to someone he thinks MIGHT be able to understand. (And frankly, this moment is far deeper than what it’s being made out to be, to me it reads more like an unrequited friendship that Izuku both desires and has thought of them to have, while simultaneously showing the distance Ochako has successfully wedged between them for her own sake. Maybe it was always there though, maybe in weird, miscommunicated Horikoshi fashion, this is a representation of how Ochako always read all those “fun friend hangouts” as a little more than that, and without those feelings the friendship never really held any substance to her in the first place. Where Izuku saw his first real friend at UA, she saw little more than acquaintance)

Simultaneously, Izuku is genuinely reflecting on what it means for the world to change, to be a hero, to live after loss—and trying and failing to gain the connection he desires from individuals who can not and will not afford him that.

Izuku is ready for the world to change, a few select characters are also ready for the world to change (mirio, for example), but not nearly enough are. So maybe I’ll have to take this back if I’m proven wrong and I accidentally looked into this far past what everyone else did for no reason, but I genuinely believe with moments like this

And this

Aand this

That Izuku has come forward with that aspect of his character development. He’s reflecting on his new beliefs, not repressing his emotions for them.

“Don’t be afraid. Come on. Take your medicine!”

Some sick baby Makoto doodles

(self indulgent bc I too am sick ;w;)

So babies and toddlers can take medicine in multiple ways which breeds a lot of interesting scenario ideas for this little one if he gets sick. I doodled them all as a therapeutic distraction.

He hates the icky medicine ;-;

I was too lazy to fully color it so tried a different color style for doodles~ i think it works~?

the color version before I gave up

yeah nah ;w;

[wren-of-the-woods]

I've been seeing a lot of posts lately talking about how no one comments/reblogs/replies/etc anymore, and, as someone who comments regularly on a lot of fanworks, it sometimes makes me wonder if my efforts are worth anything. Then I remember how much happiness I get from comments on my own work/posts and how much the community of fandom can matter, and I remember the power that can be found in spreading joy instead of disappointment.

So -- to everyone who comments on fanfiction: thank you. You make the writing process worthwhile and so very rewarding. You make people happy every day.

To all the people who reblog art and gifsets and meta and anything else with enthusiastic tags: thank you. You make people smile and promote interesting conversations and make being on Tumblr so much more fun.

To anyone who sends people asks about their works, whether it's unprompted or part of an ask game: thank you. You give people reasons to talk about things they love and feel like a part of a community.

To the people who makes reclists: thank you. You give us more to read while showing the author how much their work is loved and appreciated, benefitting so many people.

To everyone who organizes events and groups and blogs and dedicated to fandom: thank you. You build community and love and excitement so effectively and it's wonderful.

To all the authors and artists who respond to comments and build community: thank you. You make people smile with your work and then again with your response.

To everyone who contributes to fandom and community in all the other beautiful, varied ways that I can't even begin to list: thank you. You are why we're here.

And, finally, to every writer, visual artist, gifmaker, cosplayer, maker of edits, writer of meta, or creator of art in any other form: thank you. Your work is wonderful and you make fandom what it is, regardless of who sees your art or how much response you recieve.

Keep going, everyone. You are a part of something beautiful.
